Mom????

In order to help make the baby Canada Geese more independent and releasable I decided to give them a "mom". This is a yard ornament I've had for decades. It's a magnum size decoy so I removed the legs to make it more normal sized and placed it in the goose room. They are now curled up against it every morning. And they also have a larger water pan so they can get used to being in water and perhaps get their preen glands producing oil so they will float and not sink.
